Casa Bacardi - Data Information Center
The Data Information Center features an array
of interactive activities for all ages. The Information Center
is equipped with six computer stations, maps on Cuban geography,
and an assortment of books.
At the computer stations, individuals can test
their knowledge on Cuban history and culture by taking "Cuba
History Quizes." These special quizes highlight key individuals
and events in Cuba's history, making it an entertaining and
learning experience. There are two quiz levels, a beginner and
an advanced, with each level consisting of 4 quizzes. Each quiz
presents 10 challenging questions, and a percentage result is
provided at the end.
The computer stations also provide a visual
image presentation on contemporary Cuba. A combination of over
100 photographs from different areas of Cuba can be seen on
the computer screens.
The Center also features, Cuba On-Line, a database
of information on most aspects of the island. This is a comprehensive
database that can be accessed also on the Internet at http://cuba.iccas.miami.edu
which contains a variety of information, such as biographies,
bibliographies, statistical data, economic data, health issues,
dissident information, policy issues from Washington, comments
and official remarks from the United States, Castro and other
Cuban official speeches, and much more facts. The database can
be searched in both English or Spanish, and is all inclusive
in regards to the scope of the information.
Other activities of interest at the Information
Center include an extensive Cuba map display that highlights
all aspects of Cuban geography and economic factors. There is
also a wide selection of books and encyclopedia.
